What the Shadows Know
The candle flickers, soft and low,340Please respect copyright.PENANAlIjYjFUxvy
casting shapes the night won’t show.340Please respect copyright.PENANARH9niHfwwI
A careful smile, a measured breath,340Please respect copyright.PENANA3TEqafOpEE
a love that lingers close to death.
Beneath the stars, beneath the sky,340Please respect copyright.PENANANWFcZnuZ4v
lie quiet truths we drape in lies.340Please respect copyright.PENANAuqPAAcgX2l
A heart that aches, a soul that waits,340Please respect copyright.PENANAec6zghe102
behind the lock of iron gates.
Footsteps echo, voices fade,340Please respect copyright.PENANA6dBaIqQQQi
in hollow halls where ghosts are made.340Please respect copyright.PENANAUNJzntDGwQ
A whispered name, a fleeting glance,340Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ7wFNyvaG
a sorrow masked in quiet dance.
The world won’t see, the world won’t ask,340Please respect copyright.PENANA3JEjAQy50B
what hides beneath this perfect mask.340Please respect copyright.PENANAK8bqt9hAeI
But in the dark, the shadows know—340Please respect copyright.PENANAcsdCW0SgP3
the things we fear, yet never show.
